Robert Bosch has said that
it is in concrete talks with several carmakers to develop hybrid
engine cars.
The German automotive parts supplier said that it was in the process
of submitting offers and that a decision was expected within the
new few weeks.
It is reported that Bosch is negotiating with European, US and Asian
car manufacturers. Other German suppliers such as Continental, ZF
Friedrichshafen and Siemens VDO are also bidding to supply manufacturers
with hybrid engine parts.
Bosch could supply key components such as electric engines, control
units and electrohydraulic brakes. The first series of hybrid engine
cars may be introduced by 2008.
